All races will be timed.The clock will start when the green flag has been displayed and will run continuously until the number of laps is completed or the time runs out.15 minutes allowed for heats and 25 minutes for features.

6)All karts must weigh immediately after exiting track after finishing each race. If the kart weighs light, the driver is allowed to roll off the scales, have the scales reset, and re-weigh one time. If the driver leaves the scaling area he/she forfeits the right to re-weigh.

If a driver has a question for the officials, they must wait until after the checkered flag is thrown.Please conduct yourselves in a proper manner.

STARTS:

1)The race will start when the field is leaving turn 4 at a reasonable speed, everyone is lined up correctly and the flagman has waved the green flag.

2)The field must make a complete lap to be an official start.If this does not happen, there will be a complete restart.

3)The field has 2 double file starts to complete a lap.After that, the field will be lined up single file with the karts that caused the false start at the back.

RESTARTS:

1)Once there is an official start, if a yellow or red comes out, we will go to a single file restart.

2)Restarts will be done single file with a cone coming out of turn 3.The field will be lined up single file, and as they come out of turn 3 and pass the cone on the outside, as long as everyone is lined up correctly, flagman will give the green flag.Passing is not allowed until you pass the cone.If you hit the cone on the restart, you will be scored as last place.

4)If the red flag comes out because of a possibly serious accident, we will allow a family or crew member out to the accident only after the track personnel feel it is safe to do so.Everyone else needs to stay back so that the injured party can be assisted.Once the track is clear, the races will resume.
